This topic was discussed in a small investor setting....Of course it was a great Debate..

I debated between posting this here and in Conventional Financing, so here's to hoping I picked the right forum!

That was my point.It was NOT my point to debate the definition of C and D class I can only go by my 15 year experience loaning in Detroit, Indy, Memphis, Atlanta, Birmingham, Jackson, Houston etc etc as to what C and D areas are like in MY perception.  

If you disagree with other posters, please do so with respect.I'm not here to judge who is right and who isn't as it pertains to the debate here -- I am here to say that if you can't debate without being rude to your fellow posters, please don't post.Further discussion about this message will be removed.Please resume discussion appropriately.

I attended a 'guru' workshop last year and was debating on whether I made the right decision about not jumping at the 'opportunity' they were presenting right there and then.

There are endless debates here on BP on whether you should tell the tenants that you are the landlord, I've never had any issues.3.

I plan to live in one unit to obide by any owner occupant requirements but im debating if i should just go with a FHA loan at 3.5% down payment but I hear you can save alot in the long run by putting down a 20% down payment.

I had debated about getting in the middle of it and sending a letter to the delinquent individual saying that I was aware of the situation.

I've debated it for years and have yet to pull the trigger.Rehabbing for rental vs. for resale are two different animals. 

@Adam McCurdy There's been a lot of spirited debate on BP about the 2% Rule — just search for it in the forum.
